Thompson to Explain Governmental Control Of Doctors, Hospitals
The Pre-Medical association of SC will present William Benbow Thompson, A.B., M.S., M.D., ' tonight in 101 Harris hall at 7:30 p.m. Dr. Thompson will discuss the Murray-Wagner-Dingle bill and the Pepper bill concerning socialized medicine.
In May of 1944, Dr. Thompson reported his views on .the subject to a Congressional committee in Washington, D. C. On that occasion he pointed out the fallacies of the administration of the socialized medicine program.
‘ Arguing for the veterans and their families, he stressed that the program, which could be beneficial to the fighting men, was crowding its advantages away from them. Dr. Thompson showed in his address to the house appropriations committee that practicing physicians had been “cleverly placed in the light of antagonism” to the program but, in reality, American doctors ‘‘are not so opposed.”
Dr. Thompson will welcome ques-| tions and discussion following his address this evening. The Pre-Med association will welcome the ettendance of sociology and politi-. cal science students. The meeting is open to the public.
Marcuse
Exiled for 12 Years, Prof. Blames Reich’s Leaders for Actions
“At night when I think of Germany, the tears come into my eyes.”
So wrote Heinrich Heine, exiled German poet, from a shabby room in Paris 100 years ago and the essence of that homelonging was again laid bare yesterday when Dr. Ludwig Marcuse spoke on the “Affection and Bitterness of a German” who sees from afar
the culture of his country betrayed by its political leaders.
12 YEAR EXILE
Dr. Marcuse, visiting associate professor of German, brought to the lecture the experiences of 12 years of exile which began in 1933, when the hordes of Hitler came to power, and led him over the face of Europe and finally to the United States where he became a citizen in 1945.
Hatred for Germany was the life motif of the German emigres of that period. The exiled Germans’ hatred for the political leaders and groups inside Germany grew to include all Germany as German liberals and intellectuals within the Reich fell under the sway of Nazism.
LIVED ON HATRED
“We could not remain objective. We lived on hatred. Georges Clemanceau became our idol. Every day we read in the papers where other of our friends were killed.”
For Dr. Marcuse Germany was a land of friends. He spoke of Carl von Ossietzky, German intellectual and Nobel prize winner, who fought the forces of reaction he saw arising in the country until he was imprisoned by ,the Weimar Republic and (Continued on Page 4)

Fun, Frolic Party Mapped by Forum
Fun and frolic in the great out-of-doors is the theme of the Music Education Forum-sponsored picnic to be held Sunday, at Griffith , park, according to Ruth Volz, chair-I man of the forum.
The picnic, which is open to all students, wiU feature egg-throwing contests, baseball, relays, and races besides the recreational facilities offered by the park itself.
Those attending are requested to : oring their lunches and meet at 10 | a.m. by the merry-go-round.
Refreshments of ice cream and
J soft drinks may be obtained by purchasing a 25 cent ticket. Tickets can be purchased from Dick Gray, Don Gustafson, Gene Sullivan, Ruth Volz, Mary Ellen Medler, i Marion White, and Pat Parker.
Headed for the largest total registration in campus history, SC’s voters passed the 1700 mark late yesterday, the second day of the week-long signup period.
Commissioner Al Kotler, in charge of the election to be held May 16 and 17, sounded a warning to registrants with regard to blue slips issued.
“No student will be allowed to vote without presenting his blue slip,” he said. Several students have walked away from the tables without picking theirs up. All unclaimed slips have been turned
in to me and may be picked up at the office of the student body president, 235 Student Union.” HITRRY UP, YOU VOTERS
Although registration is averaging more than 800 a day, Kotler urged all prospective voters to sign on the dotted line as soon as possible.
“With the huge enrollment on campus, the thousands of unregistered students may find it impossible to get in under the wire before 3:30 p.m. next Wednesday,
when registration will definitely
end.” he said.
To clear up the existing confusion as to which class officers students will vote for, Kotler explained the method of having regis-
trants give their total number of completed units when .they sign up. Low freshmen, sophomores, and juniors will vote for officers in their same class, but second-semester students in the various classes will vote for candidates in the next higher class.
REVEALING OF CANDIDATES
Candidates for the various officers will make their appearance on May 9, the day after registration clones. Petitions for the political hopefuls may be secured in the student body president's office at that time, and until noon, May 13.
At the general assembly on May 13, aspirants for office who have not previously filed petitions may announce their candidacy. However, someone in the assembly must nominate the student and he must be there in person to accept the nomination before it assumes a legal basis.
Final placing of the names on the official ballot will not take place untU Howard W. Patmore, registrar, affirms the eligibility of the candidate and th'e student senate approves the nomination.
BOVARD VOTING BOOTHS
Election booths will be placed along the main walk from Univer-
sity avenue to Bovard auditorium from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. on May 16 and 17. Six booths are already on hand, and the committee has requisitioned 14 more to take care of the enlarged student body.
The counting of ballots will take place the night of the same day they are cast, with the elections commission, a member of .the university accounting office, and either the dean of men or his assistant officiating.
An announcement of unofficial results will be made on the evening of May 17, but the senate must check all returns before the election can be declared official.
Religious Council Plans Interviews
Interviews will be held for prospective members of the Religious Council at 4 p.m. in the council office, according to Don Gibbs, president. The following are asked to
be present: Elaine Stoneburner,
Jane Ludwig, Al Hawley, Alma Lou Howard, and Phyllis Ruffcorn.
Extemp Speakers To Battle for Cup
The Bowen cup contest for extemporaneous speakers will be held May 15 and 16, announced yesterday by Dr. Alan Nichols, professor of speech and debate coach. Three beautiful gold cups will go to the winners.
Deadline for registration is May 15. Further information on registration can be obtained by checking the bulletin on the debate-squad bulletin board. Contest preliminaries will be held May 15, and finals, if necessary, May 16.
The contest, as announced, will include only extemporaneous subjects. Specific subjects for speeches will be announced later. One hour of preparation will be allowed.
It was emphasized by Maurice Gould, debate captain and former winner of the contest, that the contest is not restricted to speech majors, but is open .to all undergraduates except previous winners.
The prizes are presented through the generosity of the late William M. Bowen to those who show exceptional ability as sincere and
effective speakers. Undergraduates who are former winners of the contest are Mildred Carmen and Maurice Gould.
Jin; Colachis, chairman of the program, urged that all students with any problem of a campus nature come to the office and secure aid. _ Stressing the fact that the counseling and help offered are of an advisory nature only, Colachis lan as Cecile, Don Combs as Jimmy, added that it is a quick way for Dick Marine as the big-shot athlete students to find answers to ques- °f Tech, and Pat Roe as a vampish tions that might take them a long coed-
time to find out for themselves. ——»
An example, he pointed out, was that students have sought information on entrance requirements for different departments and found that it is much quicker than waiting in line to see busy faculty | counselors today:
10 a.m., Harbison and Golding; 11 a.m., Breslow; 1:15 p.m., Mit- : chell; and 2:15 p.m., Mitchell.
Briggs to Discuss Keats' Life, Death
The lecture, “What Killed John
Keats,” promises to be one of the
most interesting in the entire series of the LAS lectures. Given by HaroJd E. Briggs, assistant professor of English, the lecture will feature sidelights on the death of one of England's foremost poets. The lecture will be held May 9. in the art and lecture room, Doheny building.

Headed for the largest total registration in campus history, SC’s voters passed the 1700 mark late yesterday, the second day of the week-long signup period.
Commissioner Al Kotler, in charge of the election to be held May 16 and 17, sounded a warning to registrants with regard to blue slips issued.
“No student will be allowed to vote without presenting his blue slip,” he said. Several students have walked away from the tables without picking theirs up. All unclaimed slips have been turned
in to me and may be picked up at the office of the student body president, 235 Student Union.” HITRRY UP, YOU VOTERS
Although registration is averaging more than 800 a day, Kotler urged all prospective voters to sign on the dotted line as soon as possible.
“With the huge enrollment on campus, the thousands of unregistered students may find it impossible to get in under the wire before 3:30 p.m. next Wednesday,
when registration will definitely
end.” he said.
To clear up the existing confusion as to which class officers students will vote for, Kotler explained the method of having regis-
trants give their total number of completed units when .they sign up. Low freshmen, sophomores, and juniors will vote for officers in their same class, but second-semester students in the various classes will vote for candidates in the next higher class.
REVEALING OF CANDIDATES
Candidates for the various officers will make their appearance on May 9, the day after registration clones. Petitions for the political hopefuls may be secured in the student body president's office at that time, and until noon, May 13.
At the general assembly on May 13, aspirants for office who have not previously filed petitions may announce their candidacy. However, someone in the assembly must nominate the student and he must be there in person to accept the nomination before it assumes a legal basis.
Final placing of the names on the official ballot will not take place untU Howard W. Patmore, registrar, affirms the eligibility of the candidate and th'e student senate approves the nomination.
BOVARD VOTING BOOTHS
Election booths will be placed along the main walk from Univer-
sity avenue to Bovard auditorium from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. on May 16 and 17. Six booths are already on hand, and the committee has requisitioned 14 more to take care of the enlarged student body.
The counting of ballots will take place the night of the same day they are cast, with the elections commission, a member of .the university accounting office, and either the dean of men or his assistant officiating.
An announcement of unofficial results will be made on the evening of May 17, but the senate must check all returns before the election can be declared official.
Religious Council Plans Interviews
Interviews will be held for prospective members of the Religious Council at 4 p.m. in the council office, according to Don Gibbs, president. The following are asked to
be present: Elaine Stoneburner,
Jane Ludwig, Al Hawley, Alma Lou Howard, and Phyllis Ruffcorn.

The prizes are presented through the generosity of the late William M. Bowen to those who show exceptional ability as sincere and
effective speakers. Undergraduates who are former winners of the contest are Mildred Carmen and Maurice Gould.
Jin; Colachis, chairman of the program, urged that all students with any problem of a campus nature come to the office and secure aid. _ Stressing the fact that the counseling and help offered are of an advisory nature only, Colachis lan as Cecile, Don Combs as Jimmy, added that it is a quick way for Dick Marine as the big-shot athlete students to find answers to ques- °f Tech, and Pat Roe as a vampish tions that might take them a long coed-
time to find out for themselves. ——»
An example, he pointed out, was that students have sought information on entrance requirements for different departments and found that it is much quicker than waiting in line to see busy faculty | counselors today:
10 a.m., Harbison and Golding; 11 a.m., Breslow; 1:15 p.m., Mit- : chell; and 2:15 p.m., Mitchell.
